Westminster Beats Brunswick

It was an exciting game in Jackson Rink on Dec. 11 in front of a large crowd for the home opener. This game was a make-up for a cancelled game, and the boys were fired up to play. Brunswick always brings its very best to this game, and tonight was no different. They carried the play early in the game, and it took some time for Westminster players to get their wheels underneath them again. The break between games did not work in Westminster’s favor. Jordie McKenna ‘19 opened the scoring off a feed from Nate Pane ‘19. The period would end at 1-0 after some excellent play from the Brunswick goalie. The second period was a different story, characterized by special teams play. There were many penalties. Brunswick tied the game early, but Malik Alishlalov ‘20 scored with a bomb past the Brunswick goalie off a feed from Pat Dawson ‘18. Brunswick showed resolve and kept coming, scoring a PP goal and an even strength goal to head into the locker room at 3-2. The third period, like the first and second, was fast-paced and exciting. Chances were had on both sides, and Ryan Doolin ‘18 was able to capitalize on a loose puck in the slot, putting it past Brunswick’s goaltender. Tasso Housakos ‘18 found himself in the right place when a puck squirted through a scrum on front to find his stick. He buried the puck to give Westminster a 4-3 lead. Westminster held on and survived the final minute with the Wick tender pulled. Ian Shane ’20 was awesome in net all day making huge saves to keep the team in it early and then making a critical save with just under 30 seconds left to get Westminster the win. The team is off to Boston for the Flood Marr.
